Fire Station changes due to covid-19
To ensure the health and safety of our members and the community, King County Fire District 2 is following the CDC recommendations to address the concerns over the growing the risk of COVID-19.

The following services have been temporarily suspended:
  • Station Tours
  • CPR Classes
  • In-Station Blood Pressure Checks
  • Community use of our facilities
  • Community event participation

In an effort to flatten the curve please refrain from visiting our fire stations.  We ask that you call 9-1-1 for all medical emergencies.

Our first responders are actively responding to calls and we encourage our community to follow the CDC recommendations for preventing the spread of the COVID-19 virus.  https://www.cdc.gov/coronavirus/2019-nCoV/index.html

We are monitoring the situation as it evolves and will provide updates as necessary.  Please contact the Fire Marshal for all Fire Hydrant Availability, Permits, and Fire Inspections at (206) 209-4119 or email rpettigrew@burienfire.org.

fire department expands to include north highline!

After extensive contract negotiations and a vote from two separate fire commissions, the North Highline Fire District has undergone a contractual consolidation into King County Fire District #2. While North Highline Fire District still exists and maintains their own board of fire commissioners, all of their firefighters have been hired by the King County Fire District #2. The new consolidated district will provide streamlined response and chain of command for fire and emergency medical service (EMS) to areas of unincorporated King County, Burien, and Normandy Park.
